I did attempt one of the better looming days recently but last season has left my tyres a little shy of grip 😅 but I'm hoping to be back out around start of April (rain permitting)
I don't want to imagine that either, but it happens 😕 Today was dry, but f'in cold with lumpy water - so Scootie stayed in the warm. If it's dry and 3° a bike comes out, but not before 😊
I haven't been on a bike since September last last year, & been told by surgeons not to attempt riding until at least late Spring. I'm going stir crazy 😅
I used to ride year round but these days I just can't stand being out in the cold plus my bike doesn't like wet roads either 🤣 but it gives me something to look forward to throughout the colder months 🙌🏻 I make exceptions sometimes but it has to be for a decent meet up if im slogging out in the cold months
I used to have '99 plate Tiger for winter use. Heated grips, gloves & a heated bodywarmer made a huge difference in enjoying the ride when it's cold. I doubt I'll be doing much riding in the winter anymore though.
Still use my bike for work every day bit of a problem at 03.30 this morning walk out the back door to be greeted with a nice shining cross head screw right in the center tread of the front tyre. So I had too slum it in the car
That's a sod JP. I've had one screw in my bike rear and two in my car over the last few years. I blame the trades vans sweeping out at the side of the road as all three happened within 200yds of home🙄 As a retired person I only use my bike for leisure but try to get out regularly...
Strom I feel that pain but also another reason I'm not keen on taking the bike to work all the engineers love to drop screws across the entire car park 🤦🏻
